Katie Stevens Shows Off Six-Pack Abs in Monday Swimwear

Katie Stevens is showing off her six-pack abs – in a swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Bold Type star stuns in a Monday Swimwear two-piece, flaunting her flat abs as she stands in a pool. “Are u joking,” commented her former Bold Type costar Meghann Fahy. “I mean hi.. I need your workout plan 🔥🔥,” added another follower. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Exercise

Regular exercise is part of Katie’s day. “I like to workout because it gives me a little bit of control in terms of my health, in that, I’m doing what I can to move my body, eat well, and do the best I can for my body,” she wrote in an Instagram post. How often should you work out? Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.

2. Red Wine

When it comes time to unwind, you can find Katie holding a glass of red wine. “Red wine, in moderation, has long been thought of as heart healthy,” says the Mayo Clinic. “The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent coronary artery disease, the condition that leads to heart attacks.”

3. Kayaking

Katie enjoys getting out on the lake and kayaking. “Just two ladies on a lake 🛶 happy friday!” she captioned a post. Kayaking is a great workout. Not only is it great for building upper body strength and helps reduce stress, but can burn up to 400 calories per hour, translating to 1,600 calories in four hours of paddling.

4. Hiking

Katie enjoys hiking. She once trekked in Zion, Utah. “Conquered my fear of heights today!” she captioned an Instagram post. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

• Building stronger muscles and bones
• Improving your sense of balance
• Improving your heart health
• Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems

5. One Workout a Week and Walks

When asked about her workout routine in her recent post, Katie responded that being a mom has a lot to do with it. ​​”Chasing a toddler, running up and down the stairs for diapers and changes of clothes, averaging one actual workout a week, and occasional walks,” she writes about her approach to fitness.
